Chapter 320 Extra: Common People Song Kaishan (2)
When Song Kaishan heard that the Regent's bride was none other than Song Zhimian, with whom he had severed ties, the broken bowl in his hand fell to the ground.
Ding quickly put down what she was doing and picked up the bowl.
"You...how could you be so careless! It's broken in two. I'll take it to a cooper in town tomorrow to fix it!"
As she spoke, Ding took the broken bowl, which had been smashed in two, and washed it with heartache.
Song Kaishan couldn't listen to anything; all he could think about was the Regent Prince wanting to marry Song Zhimian as his Regent Princess...
Over the years, Song Kaishan had considered going to find Song Zhimian.
After the incident involving the King of Wu, Song Kaishan immediately thought of his daughter, who was a female official in the palace. He also asked someone to pass on a message to Song Zhimin, requesting to see her.
Song Zhimian came to see him, and Song Kaishan also made his own requests.
"To preserve the Marquis's mansion and the title, even if we are unemployed and idle at home, it's fine as long as we can keep the title."
Song Zhimian sneered and refused.
"Keep your titles? What are you thinking? You're lucky if you can keep your lives."
His Majesty is wise; he has stripped you of your titles but spared your lives. You should sincerely repent. Do you still want to keep your titles?
"Song Kaishan, how could you be so stupid! No wonder you were completely fooled by the King of Wu and Cai Boju!"
When Song Kaishan realized that the soft approach wasn't working, he immediately resorted to threatening Song Zhimin's mother's grave.
"You don't miss your mother either..."
"Song Kaishan, look at reality clearly! Do you think you can still threaten me now? Or do you think I would be threatened by you?"
Do you still think of yourself as that imposing patrol battalion general? Do you think everyone in the capital has to give you face?
You'll soon be a commoner!
But my third uncle's title still exists; even though he is dead, the title remains.
You're the one who's become a commoner, the one who can't be buried in the Song family's ancestral tomb, and you still want to use this to threaten me?
"Song Kaishan, do you think you're worthy?" Song Zhimian mocked.
Song Kaishan was stunned.
Yes, after he became a commoner, he wasn't even qualified to enter the Song family's ancestral tomb. He wanted to use Song Zhimin's current tomb to threaten her...
“I have already spoken with the elders in the clan. After the New Year, we will repair my mother’s grave and the cenotaphs of my third uncle and the others.”
These things... are none of your concern anymore!
"Song Kaishan, you can't threaten me now!" Song Zhimian said seriously.
Looking at his daughter, whose demeanor was completely different from before, Song Kaishan was at a loss for words.
Song Zhimian didn't rush to leave; she just sat by the window and watched Song Kaishan.
After a long while, Song Kaishan gritted his teeth and said, "You bastard! I should have drowned you when you were born! If I had drowned you, none of this would have happened. You and your mother are both good-for-nothings who don't know what's good for them."
Song Zhimian burst out laughing.
"Song Kaishan, how dare you say such a thing?"
Although my maternal family is not well-known, and not as illustrious as your family that relies on the achievements of your ancestors, my maternal family was still a scholarly family.
However, by my mother's generation, there were only two daughters: my mother and my aunt.
You went to ask for her hand in marriage, and your maternal grandparents married your mother to you. Your mother entered the Marquis's mansion with a magnificent dowry.
But how do you treat your mother?
You concealed the fact that you have a concubine in your household, and that the concubine is pregnant.
Your mother had only been married for three months when your concubine gave birth to your eldest son, making your mother the laughingstock of the capital.
After I was born, my mother's health was always poor, but fortunately my aunt married my third uncle.
After my mother passed away, she left me a generous dowry, and you couldn't wait to make Ding your official wife.
If it weren't for my aunt taking care of me, I probably wouldn't have survived to adulthood!
Song Kaishan, tell me yourself, is the reason you and your third uncle have always been at odds because of your aunt? You feel that your aunt is keeping a close watch on you, preventing you from using the dowry your mother left me.
Therefore, you did not object when Cai Boju targeted your third uncle's family; in fact, you were secretly pleased.
The person you found annoying is gone.
Not only were you not saddened by the death of your third uncle's family, you were actually quite happy, as you benefited greatly from his passing.
Even if the person who killed your third uncle's family stood in front of you, you would remain unmoved.
You just called me a bastard! Fine, then if you're the one who committed this sin, then God is watching what you've done!
Song Kaishan, in the dead of night, do you ever see your third uncle? Do you ever feel guilty towards your younger brother?
Song Kaishan, you're not even human!
In the future, you will be abandoned by everyone, die without a burial place, and be a lonely ghost.
If there is an afterlife, you don't even deserve to be a human. You only deserve to be a pig or a sheep in the animal realm, for all eternity, to be eaten and have your blood drunk!
Song Zhimian slowly and deliberately uttered her curses against Song Kaishan.
Song Kaishan felt a chill run through his body, and he looked at Song Zhimian in disbelief.
"Aren't you afraid..."
"What am I afraid of? Retribution? Even if there is retribution, it will fall on you."
Or do you think your little troubles will drag me down with you?
"Song Kaishan, wake up! Don't you think everything that's going wrong for you started when I left the Song family?" Song Zhimian looked at Song Kaishan with a smile.
Song Kaishan's eyes narrowed immediately.
Song Zhimian poured herself a cup of tea and drank it slowly.
“I deliberately donated my dowry, and I know you spent a lot of my dowry. Over the years, you have spent a lot of money for your future.”
The Marquis's mansion gives out more than it receives, so it was natural for you to set your sights on the dowry my mother left me.
So I took the dowry list left by my mother to the Censorate and donated the dowry to the soldiers in the north through the Censorate.
You know why I did it!
"Because the Supervisory Department is a place where you people can't reach. If the people in the Supervisory Department take action, no matter how much you swallowed, you'll have to spit it out," Song Zhimian said with a smile.
Song Kaishan thought of how he had been running around borrowing money everywhere to make up for his dowry...
"You want to marry me off to a widower, so I'll go to the palace. It's all thanks to the dowry my mother left me."
I donated so much of my dowry just to get a chance to enter the palace.
Song Kaishan, no matter how bold you are, you can't be greater than the imperial power. You can only watch helplessly as I enter the palace to become a lady-in-waiting.
You really opened my eyes later!
You, a marquis, actually sent Song Zhiqing over to curry favor with a widower! She was your most beloved daughter!
It was then that I realized that in your eyes, as long as it helped you climb the social ladder, what did it matter if it was your most beloved daughter? She had become nothing more than a tool for you to climb the ladder.
Just like your third uncle's family, they are the foundation upon which you stand.
"Song Kaishan, you climbed up the ladder at all costs, but you never expected this! I will take my revenge!" Song Zhimian looked at Song Kaishan with a smile.
"You want revenge? You're just a lowly woman..."
“I killed Cai Boju!” Song Zhimian said calmly.
Song Kaishan...
